Today
Today, very little evidence remains of a railroad linking Blairton, Harwood, Peterborough, and Cobourg, as vegetation is reclaiming the former railbed, and erosion is eliminating its evidence.
One portion of the bridge remains, stretching from the south shore of Rice Lake at Harwood, to Tic Island, while the other portions have since been washed ashore and removed, or sunk to the bottom. It appears as a land causeway, with trees and bushes growing on it.

“In the mountains of truth you will never climb in vain: either you will already get further up today or you will exercise your strength so that you can climb higher tomorrow.”
